Application Process

Application Process

The application for our Trinity Certificate in TESOL Course and TYLE Course is quick and simple:

1. Complete and submit the on-line application form.
2. We will confirm receipt of your on-line application form by e-mail and give you an appointment for a telephone or face-to-face interview, as appropriate. If, however, the time is not convenient for you please reply with alternative times.
3. At the allotted time you should call the school and speak to a member of the TESOL training team. The interview will last for about 30 minutes, during which you will discuss aspects of language learning and teaching, as well your reasons for wanting to do the course. It is also your opportunity to ask any questions that you may have about the TESOL course, the TYLE course or anything related to our TEFL courses.
4. Within 24 hours we will send you an e-mail letting you know the outcome of the interview. If accepted on the course, we will also include a short hand written task to complete and return to us as well as the pre-course task and additional practical information regarding travel, accommodation and payment.
5. In order to reserve your place on a TESOL course we ask you to pay a deposit of €400. The outstanding balance must be paid 4 weeks (20 working days) prior to the TESOL course start date, at the latest.

Payment Details

We understand you may want to take a little time to consider your decision. However, we would like to remind you that your place in one of our TEFL courses is only reserved once you have paid a deposit. You can pay a deposit or the full amount if you prefer. Payments are done by bank transfer.

Important note: When you make the bank transfer, please ensure that the bank indicates your name on the transfer. This will help us identify the payment when it reaches us. Also, please send us an e-mail to let us know that you have made the transfer to immediately reserve your place on one of our TEFL courses.

Note on accommodation: The accommodation fee for the TESOL course is to be paid along with the full balance of the TESOL course fees. Accommodation for the Spanish course is paid directly to the Spanish language school.
